House Science leadership said Wednesday that the panel could soon hold a hearing on the International Agency for Research on Cancer's controversial 2015 assessment that glyphosate is a probable carcinogen. Chairman Lamar Smith (R-Texas) and Environment Subcommittee Chairman Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) wrote to IARC Director Christopher Wild on Wednesday and gave him a week to provide information on all "IARC-affiliated individuals who could serve as a potential witness" for a hearing on IARC's monograph program, under which the glyphosate review was conducted. Smith and Biggs also want "to learn more about who is responsible for the editing" that led to changes between the draft of the glyphosate review and the final product.
